What’s happened, what’s next in Alabama’s plan for new prisons? Updated May 12, 2021; Facebook Share A plan in the works for more than two years for Alabama to lease three new men’s prisons that would be financed, built, and owned by private developers is in doubt because financial backers are dropping out. The next step for Gov. Kay Ivey and the Legislature is not clear. But the governor says she will continue the push for new prisons. Legislative leaders agree they are needed. Ivey and the Alabama Department of Corrections have promoted the lease project as the way to replace many of Alabama’s aging, overcrowded, and understaffed prisons and reverse decades of neglect.

Budget chairmen say it s time for Ivey to pull plug on Alabama s prison lease plans

Budget chairmen say it’s time for Ivey to pull plug on Alabama’s prison lease plans AL.com 2 hrs ago Mike Cason, al.com © JULIE BENNETT/AL.COM Inmates in a dormitory at Staton Correctional Facility Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2013, in Elmore, Ala. The decisions of two investment banks to pull out as underwriters in Gov. Kay Ivey’s plan for Alabama to lease prisons has prompted two key lawmakers to call for a new approach. Rep. Steve Clouse, a Republican from Ozark who is chairman of the General Fund budget committee in the House of Representatives, said it would be better for the Legislature to authorize a bond issue for the state to build and own the prisons. Sen. Greg Albritton, who chairs the General Fund Committee in the Senate, said he agreed with Clouse.
